REFORD GARDENS | LES JARDINS DE METIS

Beautiful flowers at Reford Gardens.

From Wikipedia:
Elsie Stephen Meighen - born January 22, 1872, Perth, Ontario - and Robert Wilson Reford - born in 1867, Montreal - got married on June 12, 1894.
Elsie Reford was a pioneer of Canadian horticulture, creating one of the largest private gardens in Canada on her estate, Estevan Lodge in eastern Québec. Located in Grand-Métis on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River, her gardens have been open to the public since 1962 and operate under the name Les Jardins de Métis and Reford Gardens.
Born January 22, 1872 at Perth, Ontario, Elsie Reford was the eldest of three children born to Robert Meighen and Elsie Stephen. Coming from modest backgrounds themselves, Elsie’s parents ensured that their children received a good education. After being educated in Montreal, she was sent to finishing school in Dresden and Paris, returning to Montreal fluent in both German and French, and ready to take her place in society.
She married Robert Wilson Reford on June 12, 1894. She gave birth to two sons, Bruce in 1895 and Eric in 1900. Robert and Elsie Reford were, by many accounts, an ideal couple. In 1902, they built a house on Drummond Street in Montreal. They both loved the outdoors and they spend several weeks a year in a log cabin they built at Lac Caribou, south of Rimouski. In the autumn they hunted for caribou, deer, and ducks. They returned in winter to ski and snowshoe. Elsie Reford also liked to ride. She had learned as a girl and spent many hours riding on the slopes of Mount Royal. And of course, there was salmon-fishing – a sport at which she excelled.
In her day, she was known for her civic, social, and political activism. She was engaged in philanthropic activities, particularly for the Montreal Maternity Hospital and she was also the moving force behind the creation of the Women’s Canadian Club of Montreal, the first women club in Canada. She believed it important that the women become involved in debates over the great issues of the day, « something beyond the local gossip of the hour ». Her acquaintance with Lord Grey, the Governor-General of Canada from 1904 to 1911, led to her involvement in organizing, in 1908, Québec City’s tercentennial celebrations. The event was one of many to which she devoted herself in building bridges with French-Canadian community.
During the First World War, she joined her two sons in England and did volunteer work at the War Office, translating documents from German into English. After the war, she was active in the Victorian Order of Nurses, the Montreal Council of Social Agencies, and the National Association of Conservative Women.
In 1925 at the age of 53 years, Elsie Reford was operated for appendicitis and during her convalescence, her doctor counselled against fishing, fearing that she did not have the strength to return to the river.”Why not take up gardening?” he said, thinking this a more suitable pastime for a convalescent woman of a certain age. That is why she began laying out the gardens and supervising their construction. The gardens would take ten years to build, and would extend over more than twenty acres.
Elsie Reford had to overcome many difficulties in bringing her garden to life. First among them were the allergies that sometimes left her bedridden for days on end. The second obstacle was the property itself. Estevan was first and foremost a fishing lodge. The site was chosen because of its proximity to a salmon river and its dramatic views – not for the quality of the soil.
To counter-act nature’s deficiencies, she created soil for each of the plants she had selected, bringing peat and sand from nearby farms. This exchange was fortuitous to the local farmers, suffering through the Great Depression. Then, as now, the gardens provided much-needed work to an area with high unemployment. Elsie Reford’s genius as a gardener was born of the knowledge she developed of the needs of plants. Over the course of her long life, she became an expert plantsman. By the end of her life, Elsie Reford was able to counsel other gardeners, writing in the journals of the Royal Horticultural Society and the North American Lily Society. Elsie Reford was not a landscape architect and had no training of any kind as a garden designer. While she collected and appreciated art, she claimed no talents as an artist.
Elsie Stephen Reford died at her Drummond Street home on November 8, 1967 in her ninety-sixth year.
In 1995, the Reford Gardens ("Jardins de Métis") in Grand-Métis were designated a National Historic Site of Canada, as being an excellent Canadian example of the English-inspired garden.(Wikipedia)

LES JARDINS DE MÉTIS
Créés par Elsie Reford de 1926 à 1958, ces jardins témoignent de façon remarquable de l’art paysager à l’anglaise. Disposés dans un cadre naturel, un ensemble de jardins exhibent fleurs vivaces, arbres et arbustes. Le jardin des pommetiers, les rocailles et l’Allée royale évoquent l’œuvre de cette dame passionnée d’horticulture. Agrémenté d’un ruisseau et de sentiers sinueux, ce site jouit d’un microclimat favorable à la croissance d’espèces uniques au Canada. Les pavots bleus et les lis, privilégiés par Mme Reford, y fleurissent toujours et contribuent , avec d’autres plantes exotiques et indigènes, à l’harmonie de ces lieux.
Created by Elsie Reford between 1926 and 1958, these gardens are an inspired example of the English art of the garden. Woven into a natural setting, a series of gardens display perennials, trees and shrubs. A crab-apple orchard, a rock garden, and the Long Walk are also the legacy of this dedicated horticulturist. A microclimate favours the growth of species found nowhere else in Canada, while the stream and winding paths add to the charm. Elsie Reford’s beloved blue poppies and lilies still bloom and contribute, with other exotic and indigenous plants, to the harmony of the site.

It has come to my attention that I may have some sort of problem. You see, I conceived this preset when I was commuting to work. I got distracted by car colors and this idea popped into my head. Clearly, I have issues.
At any rate, I wanted to try warm shadows and cool highlights and the result was mostly what I expected. It looks a little more sepia than I thought it might, so I used graduated filters to lightly play that up.
I've been on a bit of a monochrome track this week, which was not at all prompted by the weather (aside from some rain on Tuesday night, it's been sunny and fairly warm all week). I guess I could blame it on November, which is generally one of my least favorite months of the year.
I think I'm going to do another round of presets, but it probably won't be LR3. I don't know if it's because I'm not comfortable with it yet or what, but the thing is just not working for me yet. We'll see how I feel about it tomorrow. ;) I would like to start uploading actual photographs again instead of the darn collages.
The thing that really jumps out at me from my old photos (these were shot before I decided I was going to learn something about photography and I was heck yes pointing and shooting with the darn Rebel) is the fact that I dutched everything for no reason and with sickeningly Third Manish results. I once vomited after watching that movie so clearly this poses a problem.
If you use the preset, please credit me and link back to this page. I'd love to see what you do with it, so feel free to post a small image in the comments. Thanks for taking a look!

Proyecto paisaje urbano en Tetuán
Plaza del poeta Leopoldo Luis, calles Matadero con Ángel Puech, Hierbabuena, Lope de Haro, Marqués de Viana, Almortas… Barrio de Tetuán, Madrid
Proyecto Tetuán para la mejora de paisaje urbano de Tetuán tiene como objeto desarrollar una experiencia para explorar las posibilidades de mejora del paisaje urbano mediante intervenciones de carácter artístico durante 2013. Esta acción se encuentra entre las recogidas en el Plan Estratégico de Cultura del Ayuntamiento de Madrid 2012-2015 (PECAM) y se inscribe dentro de las líneas encaminadas al fomento de la creatividad, la participación pública y la difusión en la mejora del paisaje urbano. El proyecto contempla, por tanto, dos ámbitos de trabajo: por un lado el orientado a los artistas y sus intervenciones y, por otro, las tareas de difusión y participación ciudadana.
Tras varias sesiones de trabajo abiertas llevadas a cabo durante este año, se generado un grupo de trabajo para la gestión compartida del proyecto del que forman parte: integrantes de Red de agentes culturales de Tetuán (entre los que se encuentran Moenia, Pkmn, Taller de Casquería, Mood Studio o Bea Burgos, de Aquí Tetuán) colectivos dedicados a la creación, la arquitectura o el paisajismo vinculados o interesados en trabajar en el distrito de Tetuán, como Estudio Montes, Pez Arquitectos, Ahora Arquitectura y La Galería Magdalena, representantes o agentes vecinales del barrio, agentes de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano, de la Junta Municipal de Distrito e Intermediae.
Tras desarrollar conjuntamente el proyecto y definir las actuaciones a llevar a cabo, el grupo de trabajo ha invitado a otros colectivos a implicarse en acciones concretas acompañadas por agentes vinculados al distrito de Tetuán que han participado en la definición del proyecto. Entre ellos Germinando, Perricac, La Fresquera, Basurama y Zuloark.
También forman parte del proyecto los artistas implicados en los muros artísticos gestionados por el equipo de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano testeando el funcionamiento de la Oficina de Gestión de Muros. Entre ellos se encuentran Suso 33, San, E1000, Spy y Borondo.
La propuesta global del proyecto se concreta en cuatro emplazamientos principales, definidos colectivamente y gracias a la colaboración de la junta municipal de distrito que elaboró el catalogo de solares de propiedad municipal, así como del Área de Urbanismo que facilitó la información sobre la calificación de los terrenos para elegir el lugar del Huerto: la Plaza Leopoldo Luis, el solar situado en la calle Nuestra Señora del Carmen, el solar de la calle López de Haro con Berruguete y el solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech. Cada emplazamiento agrupa las distintas intervenciones y colaboradores.
- La Plaza Leopoldo Luis: Intervienen Estudio Montes y Pez Arquitectos, Germinando y Perricac.
- El solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech: Intervienen Moenia, La Fresquera, La Galería Magadena y Mood Studio.
- El solar situado en la Calle Hierbabuena: Intervienen Pkmn y Taller de Casquería.
- El solar de la calle Lope de Haro: Intervienen Basurama y Zuloark.
- Además Aquí Tetuán, Bea Burgos, llevará a cabo la intervención “Ventanas a Tetuán” basado participación vecinal y la recuperación de la memoria del distrito. A través de las ventanas, metáforas de la memoria de los ciudadanos, el proyecto trata de recuperar el paisaje urbano que no está presente físicamente, o que tan solo se intuye a partir de ciertos elementos - una fuente, un ladrillo, una acera, un adoquín -pero sigue existiendo en la mente de los vecinos. Mood Studio y La Galería Magdalena llevarán a cabo la documentación del proyecto a través de fotografías, retratos de los vecinos e interacciones a pie de calle que generarán un material fotográfico que será expuesto a posteriori. Miguel Díaz de Ahora Arquitectura propone un programa de paseos donde encontramos de lugares desconocidos y un itinerario guiado desde un punto de vista urbano para mostrar las intervenciones realizadas, su desarrollo y su entorno.

SANCTUARIUM : Claude PRIVET expose à la Demeure du Chaos dans son Sanctuaire d’acier le Bunker lieu magique et sacrificiel. Une expo hallucinante se prépare au coeur du Bunker de la Demeure du Chaos dénommée Sanctuarium.
“Cette exposition est l’incarnat parfait de la Demeure du Chaos, qui ne n’oublions pas, possède en son sein le célèbre Temple Protestant de Saint Romain de Couzon (1630/1685) et sa nécropole.
En anthropologie religieuse, un sanctuaire (Sanctuarium, de sanctus, « sacré») est généralement un lieu ou édifice devenu sacré. Il peut alors être interdit aux profanes, et accessible seulement au clergé et aux fidèles .
Par néologisme, le Sanctuaire désigne ainsi un espace bénéficiant d’un ensemble de mesures assurant sa garantie, sa protection, avec une dimension de sauvegarde, de mise à part, d’intangibilité. Ce qui, au regard du combat féroce et de la philosophie propre à la Demeure du Chaos, correspond exactement au terme Sanctuaire” .
thierry Ehrmann la suite sur:
“Claude est un sculpteur plasticien, un être hors du commun dont je ne peux décrire l’intensité. Prochainement, avec Laurent Courau qui est le passeur entre Claude et moi, nous tournerons, dans le cadre de cette expo, une performance « sacrificielle » pour un nouvel épisode des Sources Occultes…” thierry
« La terre s’ouvre sur les reliques et les trophées qui révèlent enfin des vies et des morts ancestrales. Sans vraiment avoir conscience de sculpter, ossements et peaux parcheminées m’apparaissent et «s’inventent» comme si je les découvrais dans les profondeurs.De catacombes en nécropoles, quel long chemin bordé de sépulcres j’ai parcouru jusqu’au sanctuaire de métal… Étape sereine, magique et spirituelle dans le cœur du Chaos… »

Entrée libre et gratuite les weekends de 14h30 à 18h00

At 01:00 in Video Part 4 of 5 of the five videos I took of the car on stage, Evan starts up the car to the crowd's delight. At 01:25, I say, "I think he's trying to hide a chuckle." At 01:40, I say, "So, I saw this car in the back being pulled by a strap by a Japanese SUV. They were trying to start it." Evan was the guy in tow trying to start the Simplex. Wish I had put my camera on that. Evan certainly had fun with this one, from the back lot to the stage. ☺

SIMPLEX
The collector car hobby is now in its ninth or perhaps tenth decade with roots going back as early as the 1920s. Few cars have the distinction of being highly coveted for this entire period of time. Simplex without question is one of the few cars to have remained a great prize of collecting from day one to the present day. No car so completely embodies the romance and excitement of this period better than a Simplex. Possessing all the fleeting features of this charismatic era, massive four-cylinder, T-head engine, with power getting to the rear wheels via prodigious pair of chains all in a svelte and sporty package.
The Smith and Mabley Company's beginnings are in the importation of high-end European automobiles. S&M imported Panhard, Renault, Mors and most importantly Mercedes. S&M was the exclusive importer of Mercedes for the US market.
After a few years of importing the superb Mercedes products S&M developed their own Mercedes-like car but designed with uniquely American dimensions. S&M based much of the design around the Mercedes Simplex four-cylinder design — the world's finest automobile at the time. In 1908 Smith & Mabley would become the Simplex Automobile Company and focus exclusively on enormous displacement sporting cars. To power the Simplex an enlarged Mercedes type t-head engine of 597ci was designed. Simplex deviated from Mercedes by cleverly matched the bore and stroke at 5.75" to give the engine a combination of brute power and at a surprisingly wide RPM range. The cross flow, t-head design allowed Simplex to fit equally massive valves to aid the voluminous engine flow. Ignition was by Bosch twin-spark dual-magneto and carburetion by a Mercedes type unit by Newcomb. The huge cylinders were mated to a large aluminum crankcase and lubrication was a total loss with copious amounts of fresh oil supplied to the main bearings. S&M used the established high performance chassis configuration of midship mounted transaxle feeding power to the rear wheels through dual chains. This design reduced the cars unsprung weight and allowed for easy final-drive gear ratio changes. Placing the transaxle and brake weight more forward improved the cars balance and handling. Additionally this design allowed for separate braking system inboard at the transaxle as well as in the rear wheel drums helping keep the independent systems cool. This configuration since its development by Panhard et Levassor had become almost universally adopted for racing in this period.
The new 50 horse power Simplex was introduced to the public and despite its breathtaking price tag of $5750 they immediately found favor with sporting car enthusiasts. Unlike some of Simplex's competition the enormous engine was not designed to lug around heavy coachwork this car was designed from the ground up for driving performance. Simplex quickly cemented their reputation with success in motorsports. Unlike many builders Simplex competed with their standard production cars. Wining the Brighton Beach 24 hours and victories at Lowell and Fairmont all bolstered the Simplex reputation.. This was a race car for the street and few cars in the world could rival them for their shear performance.
Simplex offered the 50hp several attractive coachwork options for clients including the classic five-passenger toy tonneau and two passenger speedster by Holbrook. Customers could also specify unique coachwork designs by coach builders of their choosing as is the case with this magnificent Quinby example.
ELEONORA RANDOLF SEARS
Ms Sears born into wealthy family in 1881 would become renowned as one of the finest American sporting figures of the first half of the 20th century. Excelling most notably in international tennis, squash, show jumping, golf among others. She is considered one of the first female motorists in the US as one of the first woman to drive a racing car and the first Woman to contest a speeding ticket. She maintained her sporting prowess for decades even winning the national squash title in 1928 at age 47! She even remained active in competitive in squash at age 73.
She began her rise to high level tennis in 1904. She competed in every US tennis championship from 1911 to 1929 and was national doubles champion four time. A three-time competitor at Wimbledon and US Squash champion in 1928. She was not afraid of a public wager and embarked in a much publicized 47 mile walk from Newport, Rhode Island to Boston in 10.5 hours. She frequently caused trouble by wearing trousers and male riding apparel and pushed for allowing more equity in sports and society.
She was often in the spotlight of the gossip pages but caused a sensation when she became engaged to Harold Sterling Vanderbilt in 1911. Son of the pioneering motor racer and sportsman William Kissam Vanderbilt, Harold had a similar sporting flair. Most famous for his yacht racing success and ultimately defending the America's cup in Newport Rhode Island three times with the J class yachts Rainbow, Enterprise and Ranger. He maintained excellent taste in high performance motor cars and is remembered for his contribution to the popularity of contract bridge. He and Eleonora made a great celebrity couple with their seemingly compatible sporting interests. Mr Vanderbilt purchased Ms. Sears this Simplex motorcar as a gift for their engagement. Mr Vanderbilt was had several of his own Simplex motorcars including a spectacularly racy v-radiator equipped roadster. The engagement did not last but seemed to have a lasting impact on both. Harold would not marry for another 20 years and Eleonora would keep her beloved engagement gift for at least another 25 years.
THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
Ordered in 1911 this unique coachwork example is arguably the greatest survivor of the marque. Adorned in magnificent sporting coachwork by JM Quinby that is perfectly in harmony with the power and purpose of the Simplex chassis. The deep enveloping, cowl free from the bulk of a windshield with sleek built-in electric side lamps that also act as cockpit ventilators. The rakish fenders hint at the transitional nature of the car with their crisp flat lines and work perfectly with the innovative, torpedo bodywork. The wonderful wooden toolboxes were fitted from new, and the styling is further enhanced by the set of rear mounted spares. Having this sleek and light weight coachwork the Simplex was specified with ultra tall 1.97:1 final drive ratio allowing for 85mph at 1200rpm! There is nothing fussy about the final product pure, un-compromised style.
In 1939 Sears herself would drive the car to an early VMCCA at Raceland in Framingham Massachusetts. Ms Sears was awarded a beautiful silver trophy at the event which is still with the car. Original color films survive from this early antique car gathering. Around this time the cars ownership changed for the first time when Ms. Sears sold her beloved Simplex to VMMCA meter Sam Eliott.
Eventually the Simplex would find its way to the head of Buick and General Motors chief engineer Charles Chayne. A prolific engineer who developed countless products, Chayne was well known for his collection including the a Bugatti type 57S and most notably the Bugatti Type 41 "Royale" Weinberger roadster. Chayne had GM's full engineering capabilities at his disposal for his restorations. The best talents of GM had their way with Simplex and perfected the operation of the car to the highest standard. The engine was precession balanced and blue printed - to the finest possible standard. The brakes and the steering also received the full GM engineering attention. The Simplex steers light even when not moving and the brakes are shockingly powerful. The light steering and great cornering give enormous confidence during spirited driving. The electric starter installation is probably the crown jewell of the job - a discreet aircraft starter expertly mounted in place of the starting handle. The result is what most agree the finest driving Simplex, bar none.
Chayne would gradually disperse his collection many ending up in Museums - the Simplex at Brookline Massachusetts Museum of Transportation (now the Larz Anderson Auto Museum). Eventually the car was sold at auction to The Collings Foundation in the early 1980s. A short time later noted brass era collector Charles LeMaitre would acquire the car where it would reside for the next 20+ years. Of the more than 1000 antique cars Mr. Lemaitre would own this was the one he considers the finest. Mr. LeMaitre would use the car regularly and had the car fully restored starting in the mid 2000s. Trusting the Simplex to the capable hands of noted brass era restorer Fred Gonet in Proctorsville, Vermont. In this time the car was resprayed and new upholstery fitted. The wheels were rebuilt with new wood spokes and fellows. The mechanicals were fully refurbished while keeping the GM engineering that had been done under Chayne's restoration.
In 2013 the Sears Simplex was acquired by Seattle collector Craig McCaw. During this time he car was toured with and exhibited in the Simplex celebration at Pebble Beach. Eventually the car made it into the hands of the current owner a passionate collector with a diverse collection of world class automobiles. The Simplex is frequently used and always kept in "on the button" condition.
Cars of this quality rarely come to public auction. It has been nearly 17 years since an original bodied Simplex has been offered publicly. This car is among the finest antique cars in America and the opportunity to acquire something of this caliber is truly special.

This year I was able to escape the snow and join Fred in Scottsdale for sunshine, cars, and music! I also drove down to Tucson to meet Doug for lunch and spend a nice evening visting with Richard and Lola.

www.bridgetdavey.com/blog/2015/12/striezelmarkt-in-dresden
The Dresdner Striezelmark is one of Germany's oldest documented Christmas markets and also one of it's best. Founded as a one-day market in 1434, it celebrated its 580th anniversary in 2014.
This market was first mentioned in 1434, under Friedrich II, a King of Saxony, when it was held the Monday before Christmas on the Altmarkt square. Originally, the a one-day market was here to provide the citizens of Dresden with the meat for the Christmas meal after the pre-Christmas period of fasting.
Over the centuries the Striezelmarkt has developed into a huge event with 250 stands, taking up a large part of Dresden city centre and lasting throughout the Advent period until Christmas Eve. Today the Striezelmarkt attracts 3 million visitors a year from all over the world.
The word Striezelmarkt comes from Strüzel or Stroczel, which was the name of a type of cake sold at the market, now famous as Stollen or Christstollen, a light airy fruitcake. The real Dresden Stollen, however, is produced in the city and distinguished by a special seal depicting the city's famous king, August the Strong.
Today the most famous features of Dresden Striezelmarkt are the world's largest usable Christmas arch with a breadth of 13.5 metres and a height of more than 5 metres and the 14-metre high Erzgebirge Christmas pyramid.
Famous is the Pflaumentoffel, a chimney sweep's boy
Apart from the famous Stollen, other specialities originate from Dresden and were originally sold at the Striezelmarkt. Made of prunes, these little figures are really decorations, although they can be eaten after Christmas.

Pfefferkuchen literally means "pepper cake": the word "pepper" was used to mean any new foreign spice. The gingerbread sold at the Striezelmarkt comes from Pulsnitz, a town about 50 km from Dresden; it was first mentioned as a speciality from Pulsnitz in a decree issued in 1558 allowing bakers to produce it there. Pfefferkuchen are usually filled with marmalade or jam and covered with chocolate. Unlike gingerbread from other countries, the dough does not usually contain any fat, or indeed ginger, but instead nutmeg, cinnamon, ground cloves and allspice, which are added after the dough has been left up to 6 months to mature.
Glühwein or Mulled Wine
One very well-loved tradition on a cold December night in Dresden is drinking steaming mugs of mulled wine at the Striezelmarkt. The hot red wine spiced with cloves and cinnamon is served in specially decorated mugs.

The first week of camp was filled with sun and fun. Clubs started for the campers this week. WGDC campers spent the week dancing, swimming, playing basketball, tennis, soccer, baseball and so much more! On Friday, campers attended Gustafson's Magic Show.

Arcana entomologica, or, Illustrations of new, rare, and interesting insects /.
London :William Smith,1845 [i.e. 1841-1845].
Unlike the old trucks in the preceding two photos, this Ford (from the 1948-50 period) looked like new and was still in use when spotted in Bedford, Virginia in May 2008. The front license attests to the antique status of the truck. Despite its essentially perfect appearance (quite likely the result of a recent restoration), the truck seems not to be a show vehicle but in use in the landscaping business: note the lettering on the door, the straw on the bed behind the cab, some mud on the tires, and some marks on the green bed side. A first thought was that the truck had been restored to look as it did when new, but the landscaper's information on the door includes a modern area code; also, the siren on the front fender, red light on the roof, and twin spotlights suggest this truck, in its earlier life, may have been in a fire department's fleet. I was going to say that the dice hanging from the right spotlight inside the cab are not period-correct -- but I guess they are.

Historia
Cuando ya se organiza la propiedad en Jurica, fue cedida a Don Fernando de Tapia quien la heredo a su hijo Don Diego de Tapia, este a su vez, la heredo a su hija, una religiosa de Santa Clara, y se supone sirvio de sustento para la Congregación. Posteriormente, paso a poder del Virrey Don Luis de Velazco quien la otorgo a Don Juan Sanchez Alanis en premio a sus meritos corno conquistador. En esta hacienda habia trabajadores los cuales al paso del tiempo fueron haciendo sus casas y creciendo progresivamente corno comunidad. Ha tenido hasta nuestros dias un desarrollo un tanto lento como cualquier otra comunidad con dificultades, problemas, tradiciones, costumbres, fracasos y aciertos. Pero siempre con crecimiento y desarrollo.
En 1969 el fraccionamiento de Jurica comenzo siendo una colonia campestre. Debido al aumento de los fieles de colonias y poblados, se desmembro esta zona de la parroquia María Madre de la Iglesia, por decreto del 4 de marzo de 1980 siendo su primer parroco el Pbro. Gonzalo Zaragoza Ledesma. Posteriormente fue parroco el P. Manuel Malagon y despues el Pbro. Guillermo Landeros Ayala.
Hasta Diciembre de 2006 fue parroco el Pbro. Gregorio Martinez Cardenas.
Actualmente nuestro parroco es el Pbro. Saul Ragoitia Vega, bajo la tutela del Sr. Obispo Don Mario De Gasperin Gasperin.

IGLESIA SUPERIOR.-
La iglesia se sitúa en un plano superior al de la iglesia mozárabe, con sus ábsides construidos directamente bajo la roca, que constituye la bóveda del primer ramo de la nave. El acceso se efectúa desde la terraza del panteón de nobles, a través de una portada de doble vano. La iglesia inferior queda a modo de cripta bajo el templo principal. Sus cabeceras planas alcanzan aproximadamente hasta la mitad del tramo que tiene la peña por bóveda.
Hacia 1025, Sancho el Mayor de Navarra promovió la fundación de un nuevo monasterio edificado sobre el mozárabe existente. Del mismo queda parte del muro de la epístola (el que linda con el claustro). Conserva un tosco y gastado ajedrezado dispuesto en dos franjas paralelas, previo a lo jaqués.
1
La actual iglesia, fue edificada por mandato del rey Sancho Ramírez y se consagró el 4 de diciembre de 1094, reinando ya su hijo Pedro I. La consagró el Arzobispo Amato de Burdeos:
La bóveda del primer tramo de la nave, es la propia peña que cobija al monasterio. A continuación, algo más estrecha, el resto de la nave, con sus reconstruidos tres tramos, que data en origen de la consagración de 1049.
La cabecera de la iglesia está constituida por tres ábsides de tambor cilíndrico decorados con arquería ciega que apea en podio corrido mediante columnas coronadas por capiteles con decoración geométrica. Por encima de la arquería, y delimitando el paramento vertical de las bóvedas de cuarto de esfera, corre una imposta ajedrezada. Las bóvedas son de cuarto de esfera, con una insensible prolongación anterior, en forma de medio cañón
Por delante de ellos, otros tantos presbiterios cubiertos con bóveda de medio cañón, a un nivel de una hilada más alto que los ábsides. Los ábsides laterales se decoran con cinco arcadas ciegas, mientras que en el central, de mayor tamaño, encontramos siete.
Los presbiterios se comunican entre si mediante dos vanos rematados por arcos de medio punto.
El altar central está dedicado a San Juan y los laterales a San Miguel y San Clemente.
Es obvio decir, que las cabeceras carecen de ventanales, por cuanto que por detrás se halla la roca viva.
Los capiteles que decoran los ábsides ostentan una misma decoración. También esto es excepcional en el románico aragonés.
Los tres ábsides se intercomunican a través de los presbiterios mediante vanos rematados con medio punto apeando en sus correspondientes capiteles, que se hallan muy deteriorados por acción de piquetas para adecuar el templo a las épocas modernas de liturgia.
En este lugar se celebró en España la primera liturgia en rito romano, superando el antiguo mozárabe. Ratificaba la alianza del Rey Sancho Ramírez con el Papado.
Este hecho fue trascendental en el devenir del reino de Aragón. Sancho Ramírez se aseguraba el apoyo de Roma, como vasallo suyo. El Legado Hugo Cándido cumplió los encargos de Alejandro II y logró abrir brecha en uno de los reinos de España. Cristianísimo Príncipe fue el título que le valió a Sancho Ramírez este acuerdo. Acuerdo que se extendió a la concertación de su segundo matrimonio, con Felicia de Roucy, noble de Francia, cuyo hermano, el poderoso conde Eblo de Roucy era la mano armada de la iglesia.
En el cierre de la nave, reconstruido, se "inventaron" las tres pequeñas ventanas superiores y el crismón que las adorna al exterior; siendo original el vano mayor, a nivel del piso; que probablemente sería la puerta de acceso a la iglesia, desde estructuras monásticas hoy desaparecidas; por lo que al exterior, parece una ventana más.
A través de una exquisita puerta mozárabe de arco de herradura, trasplantada (?) de la iglesia inferior, se adivina el claustro del monasterio.
El cáliz que se considera "Santo Grial" con el que Cristo celebraría la Ultima Cena. Antes que en San Juán de la Peña, estuvo en san Adrián de Sásave y actualmente en la catedral de Valencia...

St Mawes (Cornish: Lannvowsedh) is a small town opposite Falmouth, on the Roseland Peninsula on the south coast of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It lies on the east bank of the Carrick Roads, a large waterway created after the Ice Age from an ancient valley which flooded as the melt waters caused the sea level to rise dramatically, creating an immense natural harbour, often claimed to be the third largest in the world. It was once a busy fishing port, but the trade declined during the 20th century and it now serves as a popular tourist location, with many properties in the town functioning as holiday accommodation. The town is in the civil parish of St Just in Roseland. A year-round ferry provides a service to Falmouth, which is less than a mile away by boat, but due to its proximity to the Fal estuary it is some 30 miles away by road. The Place Ferry links the South West Coast Path and operates from Good Friday to the end of October. The town takes its name from the Celtic saint Saint Maudez (Mawe), who may have come from Ireland but is mainly venerated in Brittany. A name: 'Musidum' in Roman times, has subsequently been applied to St. Mawes, although the source is dubious. St Mawes lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park. St Mawes Castle is a well-preserved coastal fortress from the time of Henry VIII, built to counter the invasion threat from the Continent. Charles Henderson, writing in 1925, says of St Mawes, "an ancient fishing town which in late years has assumed the different and more sophisticated character of a watering place". The seal of St Mawes was Az. a bend lozengy Or between a tower in the sinister chief Arg. and a ship with three masts the sail furled in the dexter base of the second, with the legend "Commune Sigillum Burgi de St. Mawes al Mauditt. Just outside the town is a closed British Leyland garage on Polvarth Road which retains the British Leyland logo on a hoarding outside. There have been frequent private visits to St Mawes by members of the Royal Family including HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, HRH Princess Margaret and more recently the Duke (Prince Charles) and Duchess of Cornwall who ended their stay in July 2008 by naming the new St Mawes ferry The Duchess of Cornwall. HM The Queen visited St Mawes in 1977 during her Silver Jubilee Tour. In June 2002 for The Queen's Golden Jubilee and, with a brand new cast in June 2012 for the Diamond Jubilee, The Queen's Coronation was re-enacted in great detail by the young people of the village in a ceremony entitled "The Children's Coronation".

CAMP HUMPHREYS — The A Company, 304th Expeditionary Signal Battalion hosted the second annual, 48-hour Memorial Ruck March here. The ruck march was in remembrance of those who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001, in the World Trade Center, Pentagon and United Flight 93.
Military Service Members, Family Members and guests from the Republic of Korea participated in the ruck march resulting in $5,568.47 being donated to the Wounded Warrior Project, which aims to raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of injured Service Members.
“The incident on Sept. 11, 2001, was an attack against liberal democracy,” said Pfc. Shin, Joon-young from A Company, 3rd Military Intelligence Battalion.
“I decided to participate in this event to remember innocent lives that were lost on that day and to never forget their sacrifice.”
The American national anthem was sung by Staff. Sgt Angela Allen, from 501st Signal Company, and the Korean national anthem was sung by Cpl. Yoon, Jae Hun, from A Company 304th ESB, during the opening ceremony.
“Sept. 11, 2001, was the day all of our lives changed forever,” said Capt. Stephanie Goggans, the commander of A Company, 304th ESB.
“The lives that were lost that day were not in vain and we will not forget their sacrifice. Today’s ruck march is proof that the American spirit and heart will survive and continue to flourish, even in America’s darkest days,” Goggans added.
The ruck march, which consisted of participants marching around a 7.7-mile course inside Camp Humphreys, lasted from 9 a.m. Sept. 14 to 9 a.m. Sept. 16.
“It (the march) is a good way to exercise and of course to remember 9/11. And it is very important to remember it,” said Spc. Zach Beugli, assigned to the 568th Medical Company (Ground Ambulance).
“I would just like to say thank you to all those who participated, volunteered, donated, or supported this event in any way,” stated Spc. Stephen Kulick from Alpha Company, 304th ESB, who founded and organized this event.
“We were able to raise a substantial donation for the Wounded Warrior Project. The support for this event was great, and next year will be even better,” Kulick added.
Hundreds turn out for Kaiserslautern Special Olympics
By Rick Scavetta, U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern
KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany – Crowds of spectators cheered as MeeHee Ashe and fellow Special Olympics athletes sprinted down the 50-meter track during the annual games held in Enkenbach-Alsenborn.
For those 22 seconds, as she ran under sunny skies beside German and American athletes, Ashe, 27, felt happy, she said. Over the past few weeks, she has been training and preparing herself for the May 5 event – as she has done for more than two decades.
“I like to run,” Ashe said. “I forget about some things and just do it.”
The spring games, sponsored by U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern, included tennis, track & field, badminton, soccer, basketball and volleyball. They have been held in Kaiserslautern Military Community for 28 years – the past 14 years at the German police academy, whose officers also supported the event. In all, more than 800 German and American athletes took part. They were supported by roughly 1,300 volunteers.
Lorelai Browning, 17, a Vilseck High School student carried the Olympic torch into the arena. Her parents, Sgt. 1st Class Henry Browning and his wife Lorenna, watched with pride.
“It’s such an honor for her.” Lorenna Browning said. “We’re so excited.”
Everyone who took part is a winner, said Lt. Col Kevin Hutchison, commander of U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern, during his opening remarks.
“These games are intended to help the athletes gain confidence and build a positive self-image that carries over into the classroom, home, job and community,” Hutchison said. “It also fosters friendships between volunteers and athletes and provides a forum for better understanding of adults and children with intellectual disabilities.”
Nearby, Spc. Brad Abraham, 20, of Turlock, Calif., handed 10-year-old Aaron Evans a bottle of water as the Ramstein Intermediate School student prepared for his sprint. Abraham was among hundreds of Kaiserslautern Soldiers and Airmen who volunteered to support the event.
“In the Army, helping people is part of what we do,” Abraham said. “It’s fun, when you get into it.”
Evans darted down the dusty track, flanked by other children who laughed and smiled as they crossed the finish line. Afterward, Abraham pinned a yellow ribbon to Evans’s blue Special Olympics t-shirt.
“I enjoy seeing kids enjoying this,” Abraham said. “If they’re having fun, then we’re having fun.”
The event marked the second year volunteering for Senior Airman James Carlisle, 29, and engineering assistant from Pascagoula, Miss., who serves with the 86th Civil Engineering Squadron at Ramstein Air Base. He served as a buddy for Dominik Keller, a seven-year-old Kaiserslautern athlete. Carlisle noticed that Keller and other young athletes were not so interested in “hearing all the talk in the beginning,” he said.
“They knew what they wanted when they got here. The first thing out of their mouth was ‘Fussball’ – they wanted to play soccer,” Carlisle said. “They look forward to this all year. It’s really exciting.”
Kids got plastic firefighters’ hats and clambered into U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern fire trucks on display. Nearby, participants made arts and crafts projects and hitched rides on a mini-train.
Garrison volunteers sweated over huge grills, barbequing hundreds of hot dogs and hamburgers.
The final sporting event was a friendly soccer match between German and American athletes. Germany won, 8-0. Then, crowds applauded as Command Sgt. Maj. Richard Jessup led fellow senior enlisted leaders from Kaiserslautern’s Army and Air Force units in the presentation of medallions to athletes.
Ashe climbed the pedestal and slightly bowed to receive her medal, to the cheers of her parents, Charlie and Nelda, plus hundreds of other people crowding the grandstands. Afterward, athletes, volunteers and spectators joined hands in a huge circle and sang “We Are The World.”
“It feels happy inside,” Ashe said. “It’s about winning and it’s not about losing. It’s about having fun.”

Mientras la gente sigue despidiendose de nuestro querido Luna Park, quisiéramos compartir con ustedes nuestra impresión de esta final categoria Escenario Mundial de Tango 2012.
Cristhian Sosa y Maria Noel Sciuto fueron consagrados Campeones Mundiales de Tango Escenario 2012 en reñida votación de los jueces elegidos a tal efecto.
Parece como si Mario Morales (Couch de la pareja) hubiera escuchado los consejos de nuestra queridísima Maria Nieves quien en medio de un espectacular homenaje y desde la pantalla les recomendaba a los Campeones “No se la crean!, menos aire y mas piso, me entienden?”
Fue así que Cristhian y Maria Noel bailaron un tema de Goyeneche y Piazzolla llamado “El gordo triste” en homenaje a nuestro gordo que siempre esta volviendo Anibal Troilo, vimos una demostración de paso firme en Cristhian, estilizadas figuras de Maria Noel con acento en el romance y sin dependencia de efectos acrobáticos.
La novedad este año fue el tablero electrónico que mostro la puntuación de cada uno de los jueces, ellos fueron: Miguel Angel Zotto, Natalia Hills, Eduardo Arquimbau, Alejandra Mantinian, Nelida, Cecilia Figaredo y Juan Carlos Copes, el tema venia siendo un reclamo de la mayoria de la gente para darle mayor transparencia y seriedad al evento.
El segundo puesto fue para Eber Burguer y Yesica Elias, una hermosa pareja originarios de Lanus quienes hace años vienen demostrando una notable evolución en su baile, fruto del esfuerzo, profundo entendimiento de la pareja y sus posibilidades. La frutilla del postre fue un alucinante cambio de vestuario de Yesica en medio de la exhibición (pronto el video).
En tercer lugar fue para Cristian Corea y Sabrina Amuchastegui, Cristian viene de 2 años consecutivos subcampeon con Manuel Rossi y en esta oportunidad se lleva este tercer puesto para seguir buscandole la vuelta a su baile.
El cuarto puesto Nair Schinca y Nicolas Schell quienes venian primereando tanto en clasificatorias como en la semifinal con una encantadora version de Watashi (que excelente bailarina que es Nair, ya nos habia conquistado años anteriores bailando con Julian Sanchez), en esta oportunidad Nair y Nicolas arrancaron interminables aplausos del publico, ya se les va a dar chicos…
El quinto puesto fue para Hugo Mastrolorenzo y Agustina Vignau, quienes siempre nos sorprenden y nos cuentan historias con sus cuerpos con un excepcional manejo del espacio.
Para aquellos que podemos disfrutar de la combinación de la musica, el baile y la letra, lo de esta pareja es fuera de serie, ¿estaremos en condiciones de coronar propuestas como la de Hugo y Agustina? El tiempo lo dira, mientras tanto gracias totales por el riesgo.
Entre los Campeones y los quintos hubo tan solo 0,536 puntos de diferencia, una efímera diferencia de la que podemos rescatar el gran repunte de los bailarines argentino en las 2 categorias y el alto nivel de baile que se viene consolidando en Argentina y el mundo entero.
El homenaje a Maria Nieves se merece un parrafo aparte, mucho mas que eso, una nota aparte. Al ver en pantalla la imagenes en blanco y negro de Maria es como ver a los rollings, o a Edith Piaf, o a cualquier monstruo sagrado que se puedan imaginar y la tenemos con nosotros y podemos seguir viendola bailar y sumar nuestro aprecio y admiracion al de todo el pueblo. Bailo con todos los campeones del Mundo, siguió al pie de la letra la coreografia de Fernando Gracia y la remató bailando con Pancho Martinez Pey para hacer explotar al Luna park.
Una diosa nuestra Maria Nieves.
Salute Tango, nos vamos a dormir un poquito…

FIGLIO, SEMPRE
Giunse il nemico ,
e ti rapì.
A nulla valsero le preci mie.
più forte del mio amore
fu la Morte.
Terribile il verdetto.
Il nulla
sprofondò
sotto di me
e avvolta nella notte
non ebbero più luce
gli occhi miei.
Notte profonda,
notte cupa
che togli ogni respiro,
ogni speranza
Che male
sto scontando
col dolor ?
Avevo tutto.
E ora,
che mi resta ?
Ti veglierò col cuore,
Madre,
Sarò sempre con te
o Padre !
Una voce,
un singulto,
un palpito.
Sospiro dell'Amore mio Diletto.
Figlio adorato !
Figlio per sempre !
Sarai sempre con noi,
caro Amore,
sarai sempre con noi.
Più forte della Morte
il nostro Amore,
più forte della Morte e del Dolore.
Biancamaria Valeri.

KINDER FÜR IMMER
Er griff den Feind,
und ich entführt.
Zur gleichen Zeit ignoriert meine Gebete.
stärker als meine Liebe
war der Tod.
Die schreckliche Urteil.
Nichts
sank
unter mir
und die Nacht gehüllt
hatte kein Licht mehr
meine Augen.
Tiefe Nacht,
dunkle Nacht
Every Breath You Take weg,
Hoffnung
Welchen Schaden
Ich diene
mit den Schmerzen?
Ich hatte alles.
Und nun,
Ich habe noch übrig?
Wir werden mit dem Herzen zu sehen,
Mutter,
Ich werde immer bei dir sein
Vater!
Eine Stimme
ein Schluchzen,
einem Herzschlag.
Seufzer der Liebe meiner Geliebten.
Kind der Liebe!
Sohn für immer!
Du wirst immer bei uns sein,
Dear Love,
wird immer mit uns.
Stärker als der Tod
Unsere Liebe,
stärker als der Tod und Schmerz.
Bianca Valeri.

FILS, TOUJOURS .
L'ennemi est venu ici
pour vous emporter
Envain je le priai
plus fort que mon amour
a été la mort
Terrible le verdict
Le neant
disparu
dessous de moi
et enveloppé de la nuit
n'avait pas plus de lumière
mes yeux.
Nuit,
nuit noire
qui emporte
chaque souffle
chaque espoir
Quel domnage
je dois payer
avec la douler?
J'avais tout
e maintenat,
qu'est ce qui me reste ?
Je vais vous aider avec mon coeur
Mére
Je serai toujours avec vous
Pére
Une voix
un début
un coup au coeur.
Soupir d'amour
Mon favori
Fils-bien aimé !
Fils à jamais !
Tu seras toujours avec nous
cher amour
tu serais toujours avec nous
Plus fort que la mort
notre amour
Plus fort que la mort
et la douleur.

HIJO , PARA SIEMPRE.
El enemigo vino a qui y te llevò
fueron inùtiles
mis oraciones
màs fuerte que mi amor
era la muerte
Terrible el veredicto
La nada
se hundiò
debajo de mi
y confundido en la noche
no tenias mas luz
a mis ojos.
Noche profunda
noche oscura
para llevarse
cada respirazionn
toda esperanza
Io que el pecado
tengo que pagar
con este dolor?
Yio la tenia todo
y ahora
me quedan?
Yo siempre estoré contigo
Madre.
Yo siempre estoré contigo
Padre.

FILHO PARA SEMPRE.
O inimigo veio e levá-lo a qui
foram inúteis
minhas orações
mais forte do que o meu amor
era a morte
Veredicto Terrível
Nada
afundou

e confuso na noite
você não tinha mais luz
aos meus olhos.
Noite profunda
noite escura

Pecado Io
Eu tenho que pagar
com esta dor?
Yio tinha tudo
e agora
Eu ainda tenho?
Eu sempre te cegar
Mãe.
